COOPER UNION GREAT HALL
From Cooper Union:
To celebrate Hauser & Wirth Publishers’ release of ‘Glenn Ligon: Distinguishing Piss From Rain; Writings and Interviews,’ please join us for an exciting conversation with artist Glenn Ligon, writer Dr. Kellie Jones and artist Julie Mehretu, along with readings from the book by legendary performer Helga Davis, at The Cooper Union’s historic Great Hall. This event is co-sponsored by The Cooper Union School of Art.
This long-awaited and essential publication collects three decades of writings by and interviews with Glenn Ligon, whose work has delivered an incisive examination of race, history, sexuality, and culture in America since his emergence as an artist in the late 1980s.
